Default Electronics 'Barn Door' Conversion to Sound Port?

Has anyone seen any good 'barn door' conversions to a good looking sound port ?

I recently acquired a hard to find used Furch Red Master's choice, which I love so far. This model comes with an Anthem system installed, but I was actually hoping to score one without electronics. I don't ever play out and I always wonder if the tone is compromised with the undersaddle wire pickup. But since this is a very new model and I really wanted to try it ou, I decided to get the one used one that I could find which had the Anthem pre-installed.

I'm a fan of sound ports generally, and would love to see if anyone has seen or has ideas on modifying the standard barn-door/rectangle cutout into something that maybe inserts into the space with a small and attractive sound port. I might try to dream something up that I do myself, but looking for ideas for inspiration or a tried and true method so I am not reinventing the wheel here.

Thanks in advance!
